[Q] Loaded first Rom and didn't backup Swype - Droid X General

I was hoping someone would be kind enough to help me get a copy of the swype apk for Droid X? Lesson learned, back up everything and double check before swapping roms!

I'm not sure where I remember seeing it, but someone did a dump of all the apps from 2.1 at worst, possibly 2.2. Trying doing a search for droid x default system apps or something similar.
Did u do a nandroid backup? If u can extract it and drill back down to the /system/app folder... That is where it is stored.
Edit: here is a link for the system apps backup:

Sorry to the mods if I'm not supposed to post links to other forums! Just trying to help another member in need =)

Thanks for the quick replies. I just downloaded the system dump, I think it will come in handy in the future. I dont know if I am allowed to do this but I am posting the links to the dump files (let me know if I should remove them). The first few I came across on google did not work so I figured I would help people out who are searching for them.

As for uploading, I think you can just add an attachment to your post. The option is under additional options -> attach files.

Android Keyboard Files

I flashed the 2.3 keyboard from Droid Life and now the keyboard doesn't open and causes a force close. Could someone post their stock keyboard files or offer a solution for the 2.3 keyboard.

This should have been posted in the general section...
Otherwise, search for the system dump or just download a clockwork zip and extract the file(s) you need.
My apologizes for the incorrect placement of this post. Where could I find the system dump folder if you don't mind me asking?

Modifying musicplayer.apk & other doubts regarding unpacking & packing apk!!

I like the option to change music from anywhere via notification but i hate the cheap default album art in it!! So I like to extract the apk remove those pictures!! Does removing those pictures alone will cause any problems?? If the answer is yes I ll replace those images with my own images!!
So now regarding extracting :
Does extracting by zip & repacking again with zip & changing name as .apk is enough or do I want to extract using apk extractor/manager found in this forum (forgot its name) & repack & sign it with the same??
Regarding .odex file :
I have a rough idea about odex & deodexed files!! Stock application is usually odexed!!
Now my doubt is what I have to do with the .Odex file near the music??
Help me out soon
Sorry for my bad English & unframed question!! Cz am posting via mobile!!

Don't ever remove stuff, depending on how they are loaded / how well coded the app is, it will most likely cause null pointers and so force close.
If you mod an apk, replace stuff but don't remove or rename.
P.S. you could deodex the app, to make your life simpler, but deodexing is no simple task for system apps if you are not familiar with the process.
Maybe the solution, if you want to mod, is to get a deodexed rom and mod away.

Frameworks are not applications. But yeah, Musicplayer.apk is an application apk.
As for the Odex file... http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Odex+file

i need to replace default album art with this png's !! for 400x400 i need that thumb_00.png !! please help me !!
also please teach me how to modify/edit/customise/repack/sign apk's !!!
1) Reflash your current rom (look for stock roms topic in Original Android Development forum)
2) ALWAYS do a backup of your files before messing with them, especially when you don't know how to recover them -.-'
3) Asked like this, nobody will do that for you. Moreover, that's iTunes, and we, as loyal Android users, won't take any of these into our droids.
4) To modify/edit/repack/sign APK, there's Google for that. It has tons of resources if you only take a second to type in your search, and one other to look at the links.

Jeeeeeeeeeezzzz....
If you don't know what a .sh is, then you shouldn't be doing what you're trying to do.
P.S. you could deodex the app, to make your life simpler, but deodexing is no simple task for system apps if you are not familiar with the process.

Thanks, I'm not sure it will work cause I got this phone in China and unfortunately there is no official Gingerbread update. I don't want ot brick my phone.
Why don't u just pull the apks out of the rom file you have yourself? Its really just a matter of knowing where to look.
Or if it's a stock ROM look in the development section and grab a rom for your region and rip out the apks.

Sorry, but please be so kind to give me an advice where I could get a rom file you are talking about where to look and how? Thank you.
The only choice you have is to flash a sbf or to unlcok your bootloader and flash a rom.
Here are the SBFs:

I wish someone could just copy browser.apk and browser.odex from the phone. That would be just great!

[Q] help in making APPS Flashable for SGT7

Hi..
I got this idea just dont know how to do it..
can someone help me in building a flashable zip file just like GAPPS but the apps will not be treated as system file once installed(hope its possible),
In my case i comfile all the APK of all the apps that im using and install it one by one in between build if its possible to make the flashable zip file, reinstalling of all my APPS will be one installation all process.
this will help us alot in between updates of new build ROM.
i hope i explain it clearly.
thanks
